How do you scrap your car?

There was a time, when scrapping a car meant dropping it off to a car scrap yard and if you were lucky you weren't charged for the privilege! The scrap cars would often sit there, rusting and polluting the environment. The legacy of scrapping your car was that pollutants such as mercury, motor oil, petrol, diesel and antifreeze all became part of the water supply and the ground of the yard became toxic. Scrapping a car was time consuming, inconvenient and environmentally unfriendly.
